Quick disclaimer: we visited this place over a year ago. I wrote the story so I thought it was worth posting. The post has not been edited by Natasha, so it may just be the ramblings of a Dyslexic madman. Ok that is a pretty strong statement to start this post off with and over the next few paragraphs, I will try to back up that statement.
